Comparison of Teacher-Centered and Learner-Centered Paradigms George Watson Institute for Transforming Undergraduate Education University of Delaware 2004 Annual Conference on Case Study Teaching in Science SUNY Buffalo, NY From Figure 1-2 in Huba and Freed, Learner-Centered Assessment on College Campuses: Shifting the Focus from Teaching to Learning, 2000

…the individuals learning the most in the teacher- centered classrooms are the teachers there. They have reserved for themselves the very conditions that promote learning: What I know best I have taught… Page 35, Huba and Freed, Learner-Centered Assessment on College Campuses: Shifting the Focus from Teaching to Learning, 2000 actively seeking new information, integrating it with what is known, organizing it in a meaningful way, and explaining it to others.

First, an exercise: 1.Individually, write down five words or short phrases that come to mind when you think of: Student-Centered Learning 2.In small groups, select three “most important”. 3.Finally, prepare to report out one choice.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Knowledge is transmitted from professor to student. Students construct knowledge through gathering and synthesizing information and integrating it with the general skills of inquiry, communication, critical thinking, and problem solving.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Students passively receive information. Students are actively involved.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Emphasis is on acquisition of knowledge outside the context in which it will be used. Emphasis is on using and communicating knowledge effectively to address enduring and emerging issues and problems in real-life contexts.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Instructor’s role is to be primary information giver and primary evaluator. Instructor’s role is to coach and facilitate. Instructor and students evaluate learning together.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Emphasis is on right answers. Emphasis is on generating better questions and learning from errors.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Focus is on a single discipline. Approach is compatible with interdisciplinary investigation.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Culture is competitive and individualistic. Culture is cooperative, collaborative, and supportive.

Comparison of Paradigms Teacher-Centered Learner-Centered Only students are viewed as learners. Professor and students learn together.

Introduction to Problem-Based Learning

Outcomes? Moving away from: Are students getting the right answer?

Outcomes? Moving to: Can students demonstrate the qualities that we value in educated persons, the qualities we expect of college graduates?

Outcomes? Moving to: Can students gather and evaluate new information, think critically, reason effectively, and solve problems?

Outcomes? Moving to: Can [students] communicate clearly, drawing upon evidence to provide a basis for argumentation?

Outcomes? Moving to: Do [students’] decisions and judgments reflect understanding of universal truths[/concepts] in the humanities and arts [etc.]?

Outcomes? Moving to: Can [students] work respectfully and productively with others?

Outcomes? Moving to: Do [students] have self-regulating qualities like persistence and time management that will help them reach long-term goals?
